27 CLIMATIC CHANGES Work in development by Prof. Dr. Antonio Carlos Zuffo Rainfall changes in the Campinas Great Area 2004: Equações de chuva são eternas? In: XXI Congreso latinoamericano de Hidráulica * Rainfall increase in the Campinas Great Area; * Number of rainfall days decreased, however the annual rainfall intensity rised; Hipothesis: 1) Urban growth; 2) Cantareira Reservoirs; 3) Climatic changes. 27

28 1) Urban growth: region has grown very rapidly; Thermal convection: rainfalls of high intensity but low duration. 3) Climatic change 2) Cantareira reservoirs: In the 70s: construction of a system of reservoirs for water supply to the São Paulo Great Area; Reservoirs located in the direction of the prevailing winds towards Campinas 3) Climatic changes or most likely the sum of the 3 causes 28

29 Other sudies: *rainfall days reduction: reduction of groundwater * reduction of base flows *rainfalls of high intensity and low duration: *flood *increase of dry period *decrease of water disponibility: conflict 29

30 Possible Ini1a1ves: Interna1onal Colabora1on with Other Universi1es Exchange students (graduate and undergrad) Short Visits of professors to Unicamp, and vice- versa (short courses, research collaboragon, etc.) Longer stay of professors sabalcal ( 6 to 12 months) ParGcipaGon professors/students on joint research with funding
